Looking at the pedigree of Orgwm Dawn, she is by the Criban bred Cui Chief who was just like Whitehall Knight, a grandson of Criban Bay Leaf. For the first time in the line, Coed Coch Glyndwr peaks around the corner, but with very little influence still. Cui Chief also brings the first line of Criban Socks through her son Criban Cockade. Criban Mistress is a daughter of Criban Chief, entering yet another line of Forest Nora Grey/Ness Lilac. Criban Mistress is a maternal half sister to Criban Shot.
